Answer 1

Hi Secret cat. Welcome to the forum. I just tried to make the flashcard for dog and it wasn't working. But, if I put the Spanish word for dog, perro, on the Spanish side, then the word dog appeared on the English side. Sometimes, there is a glitch in the system. You can look up the word in the dictionary and put it in through the Spanish side. Or, you can use the translator bar to get the word. Try it that way.link text I made you a set with dog in it.

Answer 2

Hi secret cat. I just tried something else. Since Spanish likes all those la or el words before their nouns,I put in "the dog" on the English side and "el perro"link text came up on the Spanish side. It is really much better to learn the words with the indefinite articles from the beginning, but if you're not ready after the word perro appears you could erase the articles. I just tried it and it works!! And you might as well learn the el and la from the start. Hope this helps. Sanlee

I made you a set, but be sure to make your own for a flashcard badge.
